Adam, I appreciate your response. However, sorry, but I cannot agree with your logic completely, even though I see the basis for it. New businesses appear on the horizon, some old businesses can change owners. There could be various reasons why there is no unambiguously 100% positive image for a company. It takes time to earn a good reputation and even more to overcome the old one. In my mind, Buydig.com is such an example. It surfaced only 2-3 years ago, and was a "grey horse" in the beginning. I know several PDML subscribers, including myself, used it recently and were satisfied. On the other hand, Adorama's image somewhat suffered recently, due to their shady business of listing out-of-stock items as being in stock and such. As for ShopDigitalCorp.com, - I haven't seen it before at all. Igor -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
